Know how…
In recent years, motorcycles’
technical design features have
become more and more
sophisticated.
Motronic, electronic ignition,
integral brakes, the catalytic
converter or the use of four
valves per cylinder are clear
signs that far more than basic
technical knowledge may be
needed to solve certain prob-
lems. In addition, high-tech
materials are increasingly tak-
ing the place of conventional
ones, which again calls for thor-
ough and expert knowledge if
they are to be handled correctly
during repair work.
To be sure of achieving the nec-
essary standard, it is always
advisable to consult your
authorized BMW motorcycle
retailer.
The authorized BMW motorcy-
cle retailer employs staff that
attends regular and compre-
hensive training courses.
authorized BMW motorcycle
retailers also receive all the cur-
rent technical information and
are therefore fully aware of the
latest developments.
…technology…
The BMW Motorrad retailer’s
staff has the experience and all
the necessary facts at its dis-
posal when it comes to solving
problems quickly and effec-
tively. Workshops are equipped
with the latest technical
facilities,for example the spe-
cial tools developed by BMW
such as the BMW diagnosis sys-
tem or exhaust emissions
tester.
